I'm a huge biscotti fan and I thought it would be fun to try a fall flavored variety. I searched Taste of Home and found these Pumpkin Seed Cranberry Biscotti.
I think pears are one of the more underrated fall flavors. I'm personally a big fan and I was very excited to find this salad on the Taste of Home website that showcased them. Since I am the only person that would be eating the salad because both of my guys abhor vegetables, I made it a bit easier on myself by starting with a store bought salad mix. It contained sunflower seeds and bacon, but I still fried up several more strips. It had 2 kinds of cabbage, lettuce, kale, and carrots. You can definitely shred the cheese by hand but I love my rotary grater because you can directly deposit it where you want as you're grating it. Nicely distributed Vermont-based Cabot Creamery Pepper Jack cheese. I didn't measure, just spun the handle until my heart was happy. I chose red pears and yellow Bartlet pears. Sliced thinly and fanned out they were so pretty. I topped the salad with half the bacon and about a tablespoon of sunflower seeds. Do people really measure
